Most of the world’s people worship the offspring, while one who is spiritually mature embraces the Source and never becomes the slave of any social or religious movement.
You have to think for yourself and spend quiet time in deep thought to determine what you really believe.
Don’t take someone else’s word for it; you take the time to go directly to the Source yourself and listen to your spirit concerning what is true.
Most of the sages throughout the ages have believed that human beings have a soul or a spirit, and that this spirit is the true you and will live on even after the body dies.
Socrates taught,
“It is perfectly certain that the soul is immortal and imperishable, and our souls will actually exist in another world.”
This belief is almost universal around the world, as are many of the basic religious beliefs.
If you study the beliefs of the world’s major religions, you will be shocked at how much they agree on, and how few points they truly find themselves at odds with in their doctrines.
But those few points in which they disagree have caused major problems in the world, and heartbreak for thousands of people.
“Truth is one; only It is called by different names.”
You could add to that statement that, It is called by different names, argued about and fought over.
One has to only look at the many atrocities committed by religious people over the years to understand that arguing over religion is counter productive and is not something that the truly spiritual person wants to concern himself with.
WE should concern ourselves more with true spirituality and being true to one's beliefs, instead of arguing and trying to convince others to believe as one does.
Take care of your own spiritual life and allow others to believe as they will.
